Description My first successful Sonic sprite.

After looking at a tutorial & looking at a few other sprites for reference, I finally made my first sprite.

Finally updated it with shading & shining, along with tweaking the face & shoes, though I'm still working on it; will take criticism & other suggestions to fix/tweak the sprite (also will attempt 24 or 32 bit with this one since my other Sonic sprite will most likely remain 16-bit).

If no mistakes, I will then focus on making my first sprite sheet based on this.

The reason why there are so many versions is because there are people who do like either the original or the improvements. Also still working on contrast & making it look better. Please give feedback so I would know how to make this look better.

The Sonic ModGen sheet, along with the custom palette (also updated *EDIT* Now edited to match Classic Sonic from Generations), belong to Deebs (with RaccoonShinobi & Hurricane360 as contributors). The Sonic the Hedgehog sprite & character belong to Sega & Sonic Team.

OK. Your style looks familiar. Did you make the Sonic CD cutscene sprite sheet(s)? I Googled "Sonic CD cutscenes" & there was the sheet (if it's not you: my bad).

FirebirdPhoenix87 In reply to raverkidd [2010-06-19 16:41:25 +0000 UTC]

Well actually this is a WIP, which means that I had the spikes a darker shade of blue BEFORE I color them the same as the actual fur; that is when I'll get into shading & shining the sprite & adding detail.
